Mike Shammo - Another point of View

MS.jpeg

Mirror mirror on the wall, has there ever been a song that made me fall back into that deep black pit chain of deep overthinking about what makes things the way they are and changes my perspective on a topic for the 100th time?? Yes! After listening to Mike Shammo’s new song ‘Another Point of View’ I definitely started to spiral into something slight of an Alice in Wonderland rabbit hole, BUT in a good way!!!

There’s really something special about the ability to be able to put yourself in someone else’s shoes and being able to see something from a different perspective, even if you are not physically able to place yourself in that situation. Understanding that everyone sees and perceives things differently from the next is the greatest thing about the world we live in and Mike exhibits this understanding through a beautiful melodic hymn. 

To quote Mike, make it your choice to keep your focus on what glows! Let us know what you think of their new hit and give their page some love!

Virghost- IDGAF [video submission]

Looking for a new and improved way to tell someone you don’t care without seeming like you’re coming off too harsh while ALSO putting them on to some dope new music?? Send them Virghost’s fire hit, ‘IDGAF’. Coming in hot with slick lyrics that seem to just be spitting out his mouth with ease.

One word? Hard. Enough said?

Right off the bat the beat comes in swinging with the same energy as the visuals of the video. I don’t know what more you could possibly ask for. Just by tuning in to the lyrics you can tell Virghost is his most individual, independent and unique self. He DGAF!

Make sure y’all shoot him a follow on IG and listen to this track and tell us if he hit it outta the park with this one!

The Trauma Trials [Episode 2]

Trigger Warning*
The math isn’t mathing. We may not be able to tell you the “why” but we can tell you the “what” as in “what happened?” or “what is going on with our city and generational abuse among our Generation Z and Millennial adults.” That “What?” starts with a story. That “what” may start with your sister or brother. That “what” may start with your cousins or friends. That “what” may start with you.

India and The Jones - Caught in the Middle

IT BELONGS IN A MUSEUM! Is what archeologists will say when they discover India and The Jones’ new track ‘Caught In The Middle’ in 500 years. If you're a person who is looking for something new to lose yourself in that involves superb imaging and even more beautiful audio, I would highly suggest taking a peek at what they have in store for you here. 

This work of art is the epitome of a programmatic musical presentation, if you looked up programmatic in the dictionary, this would be there. I can’t even lie, there were a couple times I thought I was watching a movie or a gameplay of someone, and there was a whole story behind it, it all just felt so nostalgic. Correct me if I’m wrong, but, this seemed to me to be a perfect mixture of Indiana Jones, Pirates of the Caribbean, Sims AND Winx Club all combined and I enjoyed all 3 minutes and 45 seconds of it, times 10 (because I couldn't hold myself to stop listening to it)! 10/10 would recommend to your best friend.

I couldn’t tell what was better, the lyricism and vocals filled with soul or the graphics and storytelling of the video that would put all Wattpad writers to shame, I guess you could say I was caught in the middle *wink wink*. 

Gone ‘head and throw them a like and smash that subscribe button on their youtube channel: India and The Jones and follow their insta: @indiaandthejones.
